While in Ottawa today we needed to run some errands so we headed back to Bayshore. On the drive there Declan fell asleep so we decided it was a perfect time to take the car through the car wash. Started well but then at that point where the water pressure is high and the entire car is being spray with water Declan woke up. His eyes were huge, his cheeks flushed and he was trembling in fear like we've never seen before. I'm so glad I was in the back seat with him to comfort him. Poor guy, I just kept saying that all was ok and held his little hand until it was over. He survived and I got some smiles.
At Grandma and Grandpa May's house we had roast beef and mashed potatoes for dinner. Grandma prepared a small bowl with potatoes and gravy for Declan to try. Well, his hands went but he just wasn't interested in eating it. I put some in his mouth and e just made a face. He did enjoy dipping his rice "Mum Mums" into the potatoes but he never really ate them.
Then it was time for me to keep a promise made the night earlier. I said that when we drank the Amerone I'd let Declan taste it from my finger. Well that was a huge hit. Soon as he tasted it he got a pleasant surprised look on his face, like a lightbulb went on. I can tell already that this kids going to have taste.
Then we had cherry cheesecake for desert. Daddy gave some cherry sauce to Declan to try and he loved it so we continued to let him eat some of the cheesecake and cherry topping. He loved it.
And finally Declan finished the night off with a bath in Grandpa and Grandmas tub. Grandma got to splash around with a leg kicking nut. Lots of fun in the late night bath. You're supposed to be in bed at 8pm and the bath started just past 8.
Out of the tub, dried off, Grandma puts baby lotion in Declan followed by his Jammie's and his bedtime bottle. Then it was off to slumberland without even a peep.
